Sorry. I did so in the earlier patch series.

This architecture supports members of the Texas Instruments family of
C6xxx single and multicore DSPs. The multicore parts have no cache
coherency among the cores so are not really suitable for SMP. The core
architecture is a VLIW instruction set optimized for DSP operations (64
general purpose registers, fast multiply, lots of bit manipulation
instructions, no divide instruction). No MMU for now, but may be in the
future. For details see:
